Bushcraft Global

By on July 10, 2014 in Survival, Tactics and Training

logoresizeSurvival and wildlife expert, author, gear designer, and all-around good guy Joe Flowers has started a survival/bushcraft company called Bushcraft Global. The company offers jungle survival training in the jungles of the Tanimboca Natural Reserve in Columbia. Their 2 week long trips are designed to be reasonably priced and hassle free. The $2000 cost includes hotel stays (when you aren’t staying in the jungle), food, transportation to and from the airport, and 5 nights in a cabin in Taninmboca, a knife and machete from TOPS Knives, and more.

The skills taught on these trips are many, varied, and versatile. The skills may be practiced in a true jungle setting but they are adaptable to nearly any environment.

IMG_2446Battle Systems LLC just created a clearance page that has some great deals on their excellent MPIL. I have an MPIL with me pretty much all the time and I highly suggest that you pick up 2 or 3 of them to stash in your EDC bag, car, hiking gear, or anywhere else you might need a solid signalling system. I have never seen their prices this low on MPILs.

Vigilant Gear Gentleman’s Kit

By on June 26, 2014 in EDC, Preparedness, Survival

The new upcoming Gentleman’s Kit from Vigilant Gear looks like something that was designed by a committee that consisted of Indiana Jones, MacGyver, and that guy from the Dos Equis commercials. This kit is industrial strength cool.

The Gentleman’s Kit is a custom leather wallet that is designed to hold a number of different E&E tools including various types of lock bypasses like Bogotas, shims, and similar items. It can also be used to hold a credit card pick set or just plain old credit cards. It is made from Horween Chromexcel leather and embossed with the Vigilant Gear logo.

The image below is a prototype so you can probably expect some small changes in the production version. These will be available soon. Check out Vigilant Gear.
